Me i do not understand what to do could someone me you i really appreciate it tyler wants to reupholster a bench. the upholstered part of the bench is in the shape of a rectangular prism. it has a length of 5 feet, a width of 1.5 feet, and a height of 1 foot. he needs to find the surface area, so he will know how much cloth he needs. a.) draw a net of the bench that tyler wants to reupholster. b.) use the net of the bench to find the amount of cloth needed.

a.) A flat pattern that could be folded to make a 3-dimensional figure is called a "net." You can draw one for Tyler's bench by picking any surface of that rectangular prism and making a drawing of it. At any edge you choose, you can add the adjacent surface to your drawing. Keep doing this until all 6 surfaces are shown in their correct relationship to adjacent surfaces. An example is attached. (This is not the only way the net can be drawn.)

Interior lines of the net can be solid or dashed as you wish. I have shown some of them dashed so as to better illustrate how the area can be computed.

b.) The area of this figure represents the surface area of the rectangular prism. The dimensions of each surface will be 1×1.5, 1×5, or 1.5×5. There are two surfaces with each pair of dimensions. (Perhaps you can find each of these rectangles on the net diagram. Ones with the same dimensions are opposite faces of the rectangular prism.) We can add up the areas of the smaller rectangles to find the total, or we can take advantage of the drawing and divide the area into a smaller number of larger chunks that may make the computation easier.

For example, the rectangle AI that is shaded red is 5×4 in size, for a total of 20 ft². The rectangle KN that is shaded green is 8×1 in size, for a total of 8 ft². Then the total amount of cloth Tyler needs to reupholster his bench is

... 20 ft² + 8 ft² = 28 ft²

answer

false

explanation

these practices describe the manner the land use outcome is attained. land management methods implemented by corporations are a mandatory because they are a driver for better land use results economically, socially and environmentally. corporations are required to understand the connection between land use , and land management practices to support sustainable land use policies
